Liddy ~ 11 yo Silky terrier x ~ On Trial 8/8/2017

Hi I'm Liddy an 11 year old silky terrier cross pocket rocket. I am a gorgeous older gal whose energy belies my age - those younger pooches have a hard time keeping up with me! I’m tall for a silky terrier cross – I have long legs, expressive perky ears and a silver/blonde bombshell coat (yes blondes have all the fun!)

I'm curious and adventurous and love to be part of the action. My good mate is a massive Alaskan Malamute called Arhn - we used to live together before being surrendered to rescue. Arhn idolises me (who wouldn't as I'm so adorable?) but I'm too interested in everything else to pay his unrequited love much attention! Arhn and I both need basic training as we aren't good at listening when we are together so we are being rehomed separately to loving homes where we can receive the one-on-one attention we each deserve.

I'm in foster care with over 100 other big dogs and I love to boss them around as I'm a plucky little gal! My perfect home would be one where I’m the only dog in an active family – a family who can keep up with me and who are committed to my training. I'm not very good at sitting or staying but with routine, consistency and yummy treats I'll show you that you can teach an old gal new tricks!

I'll need a secure yard with solid wood or colourbond fencing (not pool fencing or dog mesh) as my curiosity means I'd love to go exploring on my own. I love to zip around the yard playing so a grassy yard and a daily walk to investigate the neighbourhood would put a smile on my pretty face. I'd suit active semi-retirees or a young family with older, dog-confident kids who will play with me. I’ll love a home where I can be inside with you when you’re home and sleep inside in my own cosy bed.
